Bucket List
‘Every man dies. Not every man really lives.’ ~William Ross
- Cage-diving with great white sharks. Though I prefer great whites off the coast of South Africa – any shark over 12 ft. in any ocean will do. Second choice of sharks would be bulls or tigers.
- Swim in a clear blue sea. This could be anywhere from the Caribbean to the Keys. As long as it’s clear and blue.
Experience what it’s like to be proposed to.- Write a book. One that gets published – even better.
- Zip-line somewhere in or near a tropical setting.
- Witness a meteor shower.
- Wear a wedding dress.
- Swim with dolphins. Not just coexist in the water together – I want to touch them, let them pull me around, and give them kisses. 🙂
- Own my own boat. Not a yacht or anything – just one that could tote 8-10 people around comfortably.
- Learn to Salsa Dance… well.
- Learn to surf. Five full seconds atop a wave would make me uber-happy.
- Have Gary LeVox and the band of Rascal Flatts sing live to me.
- Get my passport. When I finally win that trip around the world I’d like to be able to actually go, after all.
- Go sailing. Real sailing. On a real moving sailboat.
- Get a tattoo of a butterfly. And I can stop at one. At least I think I can.
- Possess a concealed carry permit. Along with my piece.
- Revisit my birthplace, Muenchweiler, Germany.
- Ride in a mig.
(Footnote: I have no qualms about combo-packaging numbers 11, 8, 5, 2 and 1.)
Life of Bon 
Hi, i stumbled on your article about urbanna and it is beautiful, I lived in a bed and breakfast opposite town across the urbanna creek bridge. That was 15 years ago and I still think of the beautiful places. The people??? The ones in town are great, they understand tourism, but outside town you were either a Been There or a Come There. and you were definitely treated different as an outsider.
I love your bucket list as well. many valuable things to consider that I haven’t thought of, and some I did that I didn’t place enough value on till now.
Thoroughly enjoyed your blog.

Mark, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment!
Though I only spent four short days in Urbanna, I enjoyed my stay tremendously. I especially enjoyed my stay on a boat, I love the water. The town is more beautiful and picturesque than I’m able to convey in words! I’d definitely love to return someday and stay a bit longer.
Thanks again for your kind comment! 🙂
